Here comes Edwin Blink, rushing to catch the fast train to Oxmox. But there sits the Slow Train to Oxmox, just waiting to catch someone like Edwin! Through the mist and mud, into snarly thickets and flocks of geese, the Slow Train pokes its way. Edwin is furious at the delays, but soon his anger is replaced by fascination as he watches the passengers pitch in to help the train overcome obstacles. Before long, he's rolling up his sleeves to lend a hand, too - and enjoying the stop-and-go ride more than he ever thought possible.
The last thing a fourteen-year-old boy expects to find along an old Ozark river bottom is a tree full of monkeys. Jay Berry Lee's grandpa had an explanation, of course--as he did for most things. The monkeys had escaped from a traveling circus, and there was a handsome reward in store for anyone who could catch them. Grandpa said there wasn't any animal that couldn't be caught somehow, and Jay Berry started out believing him . . .
When the Romney Marsh people come to stay with the Punchbowl Farm people it makes quite a crowd at the farm. But it means also a great deal of fun for everyone. The Thornton parents have gone to France for a holiday so Andrea is virtually in charge, but Meryon and Dion and Tamzin and Lindsey are excellent at coping in crises. And the main crisis arises when Roger discovers that a wild deer has somehow found its way into the Punchbowl herd. They know they must catch her but it is not easy to capture a wild and very fast moving animal. Help there is in plenty, some of it unwanted, especially from those who offer to shoot the deer for them.
